Repatha (evolocumab) is a popular cholesterol-lowering medication. It's not a statin and must be injected. It's proven to dramatically reduce bad LDL cholesterol but several people have reported intense muscle pains occurring soon after taking the drug. In this interview, I sit down with Robert, a physician and marathon runner who describes what happened to him after he took the Repatha drug. He also talks about how long the drug stays in the body which is important if you are taking the medication and now and having similar side effects. This is episode 120 of the Joe Cannon Health podcast, available here and you can follow for free on Apple and Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, Spotify, Pandora, Alexa Echo, Radio Public, Gaana, and pretty much everywhere else.
